Plan with AA against LAG?

[jfk]

Give more respect to an OOP raise from a thinking LAG.

I don't like a three bet here as you overly reward a set or a straight and there are plenty of cards which make it hard for you to safely get value on the river if he checks. The downside is that you let him draw to a possible 6-10 outer on the turn.

As you're running badly, I'd tend to call down though a river raise on a safe card (2,3,T,J,Q,K) may look suspicious enough to get you paid off if you're ahead. I think you can safely fold to a river three bet.

Thanks for the responses...

My thinking at the time was that while villain is definitely a LAG, he's not out of his mind, and that I should 3-bet for value and to charge him to draw, and muck to a 4-bet, because a 4-bet means I am drawing to 2-4 outs (he has a full house or a straight). So anyway, I 3-bet, he instantly 4-bet, and my cards instantly flew into the muck.

Not sure if I like that line though against someone who knows that I am capable of bet/folding, 3b/folding, because this sort of villain could definitely try to push me off AA with any sort of draw just because he knows I won't call a 4 bet with a big overpair. I think against a tricky player who's got game, I should call down, and potentially raise a safe river card.

Just for the record, I spoke with villain away from the table, and while he didn't tell me exactly what he had, he promised he had me beat and drawing to 2 outs.

I feel like you answered your question here.

I like calling the turn and raising a safe river. If he can 3 bet me on the river 1 pair no good

This is my advice as well. Yes, you lose some value by giving free cards and it's not a good idea to raise a [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 4/9/T but it's much better than allowing yourself to be pushed off the best hand.

The only problem with this line might be that villian c/folds the river if he misses whatever draw/pair combo he held.
